Today, we mark the birth of another generation of great Ode children who will fight from wherever we stop. They shall bring honour to their parents and the entire Odeland, Baale said prophetically.
Aaamiii the entire guests at the occasion chorused. Ever since Taiye and Kehinde had been doing fine in both growth and intelligence.
At fourteen, they were both very industrious to the pride of their father. Whenever they passed in Ode village, people pointed at them as the perfect twins ever seen. That made their parents the proudest people in Ode.
After the birth of her twin, Mrs Bayo was yet to conceive again and people began to talk.
She will never get another child, gossiped the villagers. But she wasn't bothered at all. Afterall, Iyawo the seventh wife of the Baale was ten years into her marriage and she was yet to bear a child.
According to their tradition, that was the worst thing that could ever happen to the wife of a chief, especially in Ode land where children where the height of one'r pride and riches.
